The enemy's health bar is only visible in close combat. Techniques are unlocked as the story progresses, not for money. Opponents vary in style and speed. Boss fights require complete composure. Myths are presented in short inserts, and from them it is clear why the hero took up the sword. Anyone who likes quick slasher films with myths will love this game.
